Overview

The IP Networking webinar series continues with Part 6 focusing on an Introduction to IP Multicast.
IP multicast is a unique aspect of IP networking technology that provides one-to-many communications between a source IP host and numerous subscriber IP hosts. The use of IP multicast for delivery of real-time media content often finds widespread use in the broadcast facility.

This webinar focuses on understanding multicast terminology, the addressing utilized, and the basics of switching and routing in a multicast IP network. Practical implementation examples to deliver AoIP and IPTV content will be utilized to illustrate the theoretical concepts presented.

The IP Networking Webinar Series focuses on enhancing the broadcast engineers' knowledge of the technology and practical concepts of IP networking in the broadcast facility. In addition, the webinar series provides an excellent tutorial for those preparing for SBE networking certifications such as the CBNE.
